Heart for Art

Enjoy a creative art experience from the comfort of your own home.
Make your life more fun and get a dose of happy at this easy to follow virtual paint party.

Join us online to paint, unwind and find your creativity. We’ll show you, step by step, how to create your Bucket Fountain masterpiece. It's totally easy, and you don't need any experience. Wear your pyjamas, your onesies or whatever you’re comfy in. Grab a glass of wine and turn it into a wine and paint party!

Once you’ve purchased your ticket we’ll send you an email with an invite to join a private Facebook group where we’ll live stream your virtual paint party at 3pm on 12 April. Join us live for an interactive art class or watch the replay later. All you have to do is prep your supplies and be ready to enjoy creative fun.

Alternate Supply List
If you’re currently in lockdown due to Covid 19 and can’t get out to buy supplies, do a scavenger hunt around your house and see what you can find. Don’t worry if you can’t find the exact materials, you can use whatever you want. We’ve created an alternate art supplies list to give you some ideas (click the tickets link above to go to our website where you’ll find the link to it)

Never painted before? No problem. Our Paint Parties are created especially for people who've never held a paint brush or reckon they can't even draw a stick figure. If you think you're not creative or artistic - we're here to help you unleash your inner artist and have fun doing it.

Any skill level welcome. You're free to follow along and paint the featured painting or go freestyle and add your own creative touches.

We believe art has the power to heal. We know how good art is for our mental health and well-being, especially during difficult times. While you paint, your mind gets a much needed break from the worrying thoughts and stresses you may be feeling. Our mission is to share the positive benefits of art by making it easy and more accessible to everyone.

Hope to paint with you soon.
